Organic. Base 19 bottling: This wine is from the 2019 base vintage with 30% perpetual cuvée added. The blend is nearly 73% Chardonnay and 27% Pinot noir. The primary vineyards are Keefer Ranch, Alder Springs, Linda Vista, and Rorick Vineyard. The grapes were pressed using a traditional Champagne cycle and press cut. The wine proceeded through a native primary and malolactic fermentation in barrel, wooden tanks, and about 20% stainless steel fermentation. No sulfur was used in the élevage. The wine was
racked once and tirage bottled without fining or filtering. After approximately 18 months in bottle, the wine was riddled and disgorged à la volée with zero dosage.
